Welcome to Grey Zone Cafe, a hidden gem nestled in the charming back alleys of Tainan City, Taiwan. Exclusively open just once a month, this cozy café is not only an enchanting place to relax, but it’s also a delightful culinary experience waiting to be discovered. With its unique reservation-only policy and limited operating days, each visit transforms into a special occasion, creating an air of anticipation and excitement.

As you climb to the second floor on Weimin St, you'll find a beautifully decorated space that's both inviting and intimate. The café radiates warmth and creativity, offering the perfect backdrop for savoring its delightful menu. The atmosphere is enhanced by the presence of Dolly, the Shiba Inu, who adds a joyful, friendly charm that guests adore.

The menu at Grey Zone Cafe promises an array of tempting treats, notably their 抹茶拿鐵 (Matcha Latte) and 焙茶拿鐵 (Hojicha Latte), both priced at $140. The 抹茶提拉米蘇 and 焙茶巴斯克 equally shine, showcasing the café's commitment to quality and flavor. Each dish is crafted with real ingredients, making every bite a celebration of rich flavors.

Visitors rave about the taste of the desserts, particularly the 焦糖布丁 (Caramel Pudding) at $80, which manages to surprise with its complex, creamy texture and balanced sweetness. The artistic presentation and the unique concept of the café have garnered sweet reviews from patrons, who applaud how the vibrant desserts almost look too good to eat!

While the menu is delightful, it’s important to note that Grey Zone Café has a limited number of seats, which creates a personalized and exclusive experience. Here, you can enjoy a moment of serenity away from the bustling streets, sipping a perfectly brewed drink while indulging in mouthwatering desserts that evoke a sense of comfort and satisfaction. As the reviews suggest, while some flavors are stronger than others, each product on the menu celebrates the essence of tea and sweetness.

However, with such a unique dining experience comes the insider tip: be sure to check the operating schedule and make a reservation to avoid disappointment. Each visit is not just a meal; it’s an experience to treasure. Whether you're a matcha lover or simply in search of a heartwarming café experience, Grey Zone Cafe is a perfect little escape that shouldn’t be missed.

So the next time you find yourself wandering the picturesque streets of Tainan, remember to look for this hidden treasure. If you're lucky enough to visit on their open day, you’ll leave with not just a satisfied palate, but also wonderful memories to cherish.

I chanced upon this cafe walking around the side alleys and backstreets. They just happened to be open on Valentine's Day and I found out from the owner they are only open one day a month. But for February because of the Lunar New Year holiday they were open for a few more days. The desserts are good and so are the drinks. The decor is also well done. Dolly the Shiba Inu however, is the star of the shop. She likes to sit or lie down at the top of the stairs and often greets customers as they come in. She gave me a warm greeting on my first visit. I just wish this place was open more often but given the owner's personal schedule it's understandable. I brought a friend who was visiting from Korea and he enjoyed the place along with Dolly's company as well. I'm glad I found this gem of a cafe in a city filled with great ones.

價格實在,口味濃郁,非常推薦抹茶控的人來,不過營業時間比較少,要記得預約。店家非常親切,也很親子友善,加點的布丁也好好吃,下次有機會要喝純抹茶,抹茶拿鐵的奶味稍多了些會蓋掉抹茶味有點可惜,甜點都很真材實料價格也不會太高喔!

有柴柴的咖啡廳還不快收藏 (⁎⁍̴̛ᴗ⁍̴̛⁎) ⁡ 店面位於衛民街上的小巷弄裡 機車到不了 可停在附近走過去比較方便 ⁡ 店內販售品項有鬆餅跟飲品 鬆餅屬於蓬鬆口感 搭配糖漿與鮮奶油 外觀顏色看起來超像玩具 (๑⃙⃘·́ω·̀๑⃙⃘)੨ 黑黑的拿鐵偏奶味重一些 整體順口不會有苦澀感

焙茶拿鐵 $140 抹茶拿鐵 $140 焙茶巴斯克 $100 抹茶提拉米蘇 $120 焦糖布丁 $80 可遇不可求的營業日期! 很幸運當天是營業日 店狗真的非常可愛 一上樓就前來歡迎 原本預訂都已客滿 還好較早抵達 還有一些現場的位子~ 焙茶拿鐵整體很「焙」! 非常濃厚的焙茶味 整體甜度不高 但想較之下會選擇抹茶拿鐵~ 抹茶拿鐵帶點苦味 也是沒什麼甜度 巴斯克蛋糕質地很扎實! 每個品相都有滿滿的茶味! 提拉米蘇的造型很特別 很像一個枕頭 上面有滿滿的抹茶粉~ 但最意外的是焦糖布丁 可能是茶類跟甜點都太濃厚 帶點甜味的焦糖布丁反而更讓人驚艷 口感很扎實又滑嫩~ 真的碰巧遇到營業日不妨可以上樓詢問看看~

抹茶醬麋蛋糕口感近抹茶巧克力,不甜,很濃郁,好喜歡! 焙茶拿鐵雖然有點小杯,奶泡很厚,很濃郁,我也喜歡! 狗狗很親人 位子很少,座位空間設計有點玄妙

第一次看到一個月只開一天的咖啡廳 就剛好今天有開直接奔去~~~ 巔峰時刻去登記前面還有五六組 一開門就是樓梯往上看就看到Dolly趴在門口看我(心臟爆擊!!!) 內用空間有兩三樓,說不少也不多 特地來的客人很多因為營業日只有一天 後來附近逛逛差不多兩個小時回去詢問就剛好快到我們了 因為入座前兩位服務生姊姊就有告知餐點要等半小時以上,想說難得都來了就等!! 可惜太晚來了最想吃的抹茶系列甜點都賣完了(最後姊姊說下次來可以提早預留甜點) 不過其他甜點也都不錯尤其是布丁! 根本像布蕾的口感,入口即化!! 抹茶拿鐵的抹茶非常非常抹!真材實料! 三樓空間也蠻大的,佈置得像畫展一樣 而且餐點飲料也很便宜!非常值得一個月開的那一天都來 重點姊姊們超級不好意思讓我們候位很久跟等餐很久 很客氣而且人都很親切 黑柴Dolly很可愛可以給摸摸而且還會坐下握手擊掌真的超乖 下次有機會再來嚐嚐抹茶甜點
